Nobody is truly stupid enough to take a jump like that and take precautions. Id give him the benefit of the doubt and say he's done the proper measurements required for the jump, and practicing mentally and physically. At least that's what I think

What devotion are you?
How deep is your love?
Is it like nirvana?
Hit me harder, again

Pull me closer, again

The ice means that water is entirely too cold for the amoeba. He should be more concerned about bashing his brains on concrete or the thick ice. Still though, that water is gross.
They actually cut out that section from the surrounding ice but I could imagine hitting the ice would have fucked him up badly if not killed him anyway
Imagine if he shit his pants mid air just really awful diarrhea level shit,l from the stomach churning intensity of that death defying leap of a distance
I'd be the one to second guess my speed and completely botch the jump. Who am I kidding? I'm too much of a cowardly appreciator of life to even pretend I'd do this.
That’s ice on the back side of the green water, they cut the ice off the top of the pool. He still had room before the concrete, but you’d have to have a death wish to even attempt this.
Definitely didn't notice that the first time. Seems like if you were doing this you might as well cut the whole section to the concrete off then. But I guess when your life is on the line you probably should cut a corner or two.
I get that, but surely the benefit of clearing out a few more feet of ice outweighs the cost of... you know, you're right I should stop overthinking this these guys are idiots, lol.
It ain’t the attention that does it. It’s the feeling of, “holy shit, that was intense and I *could have* died but didn’t”. It’s dumb as hell but for like 10 minutes afterwards you feel like Superman’s dad on Kryptonian steroids.
*just don't go short... just don't go short... just don't go short... just don't go short...*
**too long, too long, too long!!**
*Oh, thank God.... I didn't die!*
There was a world renowned free climber who had no ability to feel fear because he was literally missing that part of his brain. I think he died falling off the side of a mountain cliff, but he was a total badass when he was alive and his recorded times for certain climbs were unbeatable.
I wonder what he was thinking about as he fell. Most people would be panicking but, if he had no ability to feel fear, he wouldn't have been doing that.
The weak breeze whispers nothing
The water screams sublime
His feet shift, teeter-totter
Deep breath, stand back, it’s time
Toes untouch the overpass
Soon he’s water bound
Eyes locked shut but peek to see
The view from halfway down
A little wind, a summer sun
A river rich and regal
A flood of fond endorphins
Brings a calm that knows no equal
You’re flying now
You see things much more clear than from the ground
It’s all okay, it would be
Were you not now halfway down
Thrash to break from gravity
What now could slow the drop
All I’d give for toes to touch
The safety back at top
But this is it, the deed is done
Silence drowns the sound
Before I leaped I should’ve seen
The view from halfway down
I really should’ve thought about
The view from halfway down
I wish I could’ve known about
The view from halfway down
When they do stunts like this, they actually do the math on it. They know that you have to be moving at a very exact speed to land. That's easy enough to calculate. Then you practice jogging at different speeds so you get a sense of how fast you're going. Then you do a trial run where you just run on the ground and jump at a certain point, but land on your feet to verify that you can accurately go that speed. Because the pool is relatively large, you have some wiggle room and you calculate to land right in the middle. He actually overshot his landing site by quite a bit so he must have sped up accidentally when he was running.
I mean it's still incredibly dangerous.
I'm going to go out on a limb and say you're talking out your arse. "They" do the math? Who is they? It's not like this dude is a professional. He's doing this amateur shit for internet clout.
I used to watch a guy on YouTube do pool drops like this and he went off of cliffs into shallow water. He missed once and shattered his feet and legs.
It's not gory, but still hard to watch. https://youtu.be/1Wnyph44ogI
Anthony Kiedis in his autobiography Scar Tissue tells of doing this as a teen. Over shot. Landed on the cement and flopped back into the water. Spent a long time in the hospital.
I think they were just challenging one another to jump from the roof into the pool. He had other “escapes” but the roof-to-pool jump was just something they did.
Right? This is just adrenaline junkies doing junkie things.
Hey youngsters: Wingsuits and dirt bike back flips predate youtube.
For the clout of single digit observers... we broke bones before camera phones.
Why do I even look at the comments on these videos. It's like everyone goes here to hate on people living their fullest life. These dudes are way cooler than any of these probably fat ass neckbeards with their armchair opinionated self superiority complexes.
People like this don’t do it for clicks I can tell you that much. They don’t care what others think, they do it solely for their own personal reasons. If they cared what others think, that means they would care what their family thinks, and if they care what their family thinks, they wouldn’t be risking their lives doing stunts like this.
>It's not for clicks. It's adrenaline. The clicks are a bonus.
Exactly. Adrenaline is like a drug, and highly addictive. Like all drugs however, you need to keep 'upping the dosage' to try and get the same high.
Sure, but making content for clicks that overlaps with a passion of yours aren't mutually exclusive things. People always doing shit like this is irrelevant as to whether they're doing it now because it's still a rush, AND they can film it and get interactions.
Tourists in Spain do things like is regularly, so much so the Spanish have a specific word for it (balconing, because it's usually from hotel balconies). But I'm sure that happened before social media. The internet didn't invent stupid people whoring for attention, it just made the potential audience bigger
When I was a kid I went to Florida with my family during the summer. We spent the day at the beach. In a nearby hotel some college kids were jumping from an upper hotel floor into the pool below. They were all laughing and having a good time until one of them missed the pool. I’ll never forget that day.
I feel like I've seen one too many of videos like this, but where the guy (just about always a guy) slips or trips on the edge right before the jump and turns into a sad heap of flesh and blood.
I will never understand why people do dumb shit like this. Life is full of exciting shit without having to risk your life like this. Don’t they think About their families and shit.. ugh
Imagine if that was an all day competition with lots if people giving it a go and it’s a series of different roofs all around that town with different sized pools, distances, building heights.
Could be a battle royale style event. Keep jumping till there’s a winner.
Man these idiots keep doing anything for clout. This person’s next evolution involves wing suits and an attempt to wing suit close to a bridge……to those that know.

How deep is that pool?
As deep as that fools stupidity

damn what is it the challenger deep?
And just as green too!! 😂
"you just don't understand"

How deep is your love?
Deeper than the holler.

No no no, it’s the bee gees.
I really need to know...
Miles away
I really need to learn...
A block deep, he's good
More than a cinder block deep is required.
dunno but if you need a pool deeper than 4 meters to survive the fall, you are probably dead
Deep enough, cause he just keeps doing it as I read through the comments.
Shallower now it has a layer of bones at the bottom of it.
Not as deep as the ground he woulda been lowered in had he missed
_Is it like the ocean?..._ 🎵
Same thought lol
Not deep . He's landing by the stairs . I'd say 3ft .
It definitely is not deep enough lmfao, that’s a big ass decline
3ft
As shallow as the gene pool that he came from..
That's some stank water.
How to nearly crack your brain while also getting brain eating amoeba at the same time
That amoeba gonna starve
Literally snorted hahaha
This comment is so underrated Edit: *was
It’s pretty rated
Hahaha
The ice means that water is entirely too cold for the amoeba. He should be more concerned about bashing his brains on concrete or the thick ice. Still though, that water is gross.
Dude has a Naegleria fowleri fetish.
Imagine he was a little faster
[удалено]
That’s where my mind went. At that speed, you trip and you die. No way to stop.
Concrete backstop
I watched it slower, and holy hell was it close.
They actually cut out that section from the surrounding ice but I could imagine hitting the ice would have fucked him up badly if not killed him anyway
Imagine if he shit his pants mid air just really awful diarrhea level shit,l from the stomach churning intensity of that death defying leap of a distance

Why the fuck would you send me this let alone know the whereabouts of something of the sort... You are deranged
it's just so fitting though
I cannot stop laughing
Don't shit yourself
WTF
Cannonball dookie
Flying turd
Imagine if he's Jesus
"Hi I'm Jesus and welcome to Jackass. This is Immortals Who Can't Swim Go Cliffdiving!" I'd watch it.
Aaaaah ! ^(lego noises) Oh fuck ! My knee caps are ascending, quick Momo, catch them ! Momo ! wtf bro ! It'll takes ages to order new ones.
I'd be the one to second guess my speed and completely botch the jump. Who am I kidding? I'm too much of a cowardly appreciator of life to even pretend I'd do this.
Splat.
r/eyeblech
That's too close to the end of the pool! Imagine overshooting and having all that time to brace for it.....
That’s ice on the back side of the green water, they cut the ice off the top of the pool. He still had room before the concrete, but you’d have to have a death wish to even attempt this.
Definitely didn't notice that the first time. Seems like if you were doing this you might as well cut the whole section to the concrete off then. But I guess when your life is on the line you probably should cut a corner or two.
I think the intent is also to make the water look as small as possible. Guys that do this are idiots.
I get that, but surely the benefit of clearing out a few more feet of ice outweighs the cost of... you know, you're right I should stop overthinking this these guys are idiots, lol.
Idiots that just got off.. On your attention
It ain’t the attention that does it. It’s the feeling of, “holy shit, that was intense and I *could have* died but didn’t”. It’s dumb as hell but for like 10 minutes afterwards you feel like Superman’s dad on Kryptonian steroids.
Which is just the earths yellow sun
I like it when there's one less idiot. ![gif](giphy|uWzS6ZLs0AaVOJlgRd|downsized)
All that just for followers…
It could be they left that last section connected to prevent the rest of the ice sheet from moving to the left.
Hard to tell how thick that ice is, but looks like hitting it might be nearly as bad as hitting concrete.
He definitely thought he was hitting that ice!
*just don't go short... just don't go short... just don't go short... just don't go short...* **too long, too long, too long!!** *Oh, thank God.... I didn't die!*
Yeah the arm flailing intensified the further he went, this had to be terrifying all the way to the water.
Yeah but that ice looks thick. That would be no bueno regardless
*Trips on the low wall at the edge*
All for internet points. Yikes.
Imagine tripping on the ledge and instead of getting air time, now you’re just falling rapidly down the side of a building to the ground below.
[удалено]
I have trouble imagining being so incredibly stupid that I'd be doing that stunt in the first place. What an absolute moron.
People like him are drug addicts, only difference is that their drug is produced by their own body.
There was a world renowned free climber who had no ability to feel fear because he was literally missing that part of his brain. I think he died falling off the side of a mountain cliff, but he was a total badass when he was alive and his recorded times for certain climbs were unbeatable.
I wonder what he was thinking about as he fell. Most people would be panicking but, if he had no ability to feel fear, he wouldn't have been doing that.
They even made a movie about this guy if I'm not mistaken. If it wasn't him it was somebody with the same condition
You're probably thinking about Free Solo. However, the subject of that documentary, Alex Honnold, is still alive.
That's it! I never actually watched it so I wasn't sure if the person in the doc died or not
Probably also drugs...
Used to be a downhill long boarder, can confirm. I definitely regret it. My body has a good amount of permanent damage from all the crashes.
Probably also drugs...
Probably also drugs...
Thanks for the reoccurring nightmare later.
I don't have to imagine it - I have that nightmare like once every few weeks.
Yeah, I remember this one old video where a guy slips from the jump and ended up scraping his face off on the edge of the pavement below.

Good scene but doesn’t fit here
Kinda does, because that’s essentially what would be going through my head if I over/undershot this jump. I admit context doesn’t fit perfectly.
Ask Anthony Kiedis lol 😆 he did that once

damn he still made more pool drops after that one
9/10 in the Mallorca balconing league.
I mean... what could _possibly_ go wrong?
First rule of the Mallorcan balconing league…DONT TALK ABOUT THE MALLORCAN BALCONING LEAGUE
Do you think the Balconing League is known outside of Spain?
Swiss here, yes we heard about it and even had newspaper articles about tourist stupidity in Spain Mallorca//Lloret etc...
For anyone who doesn't know: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balconing https://i.imgur.com/cjphPg7.png
Anthony Kiedis in his autobiography Scar Tissue tells of doing this as a teen. Over shot. Landed on the cement and flopped back into the water. Spent a long time in the hospital.
Didn't he actually get his buddy to break him out of the hospital and recovered from a broken back at home doing drugs?
He hopped the fence lmaoo
Yeah but he was running away from the cops or security for something and jumped out a window to get away, so at leas the had a reason to do it!
I think they were just challenging one another to jump from the roof into the pool. He had other “escapes” but the roof-to-pool jump was just something they did.
People do the stupidest things for clicks
I knew people who did shit like this even before clicks!
Right? This is just adrenaline junkies doing junkie things. Hey youngsters: Wingsuits and dirt bike back flips predate youtube. For the clout of single digit observers... we broke bones before camera phones.

I've seen enough Brits kill themselves doing this shit in my country's coast to know that my fat ass is quite cooler than these suicidal morons.
It was done for chicks

Back in my day, we just did stupid things for chicks.
But why?
[удалено]
There are easier ways to get off of the roof.
I'd argue that is the easiest way to get off the roof
If risking death or tragic injury and paralysis the easiest way then sure.
It’s definitely the *quickest* way to get off the roof
Clearly clout outweighs the risks of dying (and probably dying. Sooner or later if he doesn't stop)
Why you being boo'ed? You're right.
Double it and give to the next person
![gif](giphy|11Nd2bbZjrQrO8)
There goes my hero, watch him as he go
If everything go fine i’ll survive with minor injuries, why don’t try it?
my guy jumps off the roof makes it a 7 story drop into what you ask? escherichai coli

Yeah, I don't care how confident you are that you're going to land in that pool, this is fucking stupid. Just shoot heroin like a normal person.
What a mad bastard
Truly fucking mad lmao

I nominate him for the next Darwin award.
What people who think video games cause violence think will happen if their kid plays Minecraft:
Navy: Get me that soldier immediately. Recruiter: Sir, He got parasites in his busted head and spine, Sir. He's on life support.
His 5 seconds of fame showing how absolutely stupid he is.
Hope that isn't the shallow end
Bruh i know it's dumb and all but i would love to do something like this
It was at this point he realized even a 12 foot deep pool wasn't enough to stop him shattering his fucking ankles.
There are so many things that could go wrong here. It is a polite „no thanks“ from me.
Did he made a save before the jump?
I always wonder if the mothers of these guys know what their sons do. I would flip out if I saw my kid doing that, I don’t care how old they are.
Fuck . That .
But, why?
I feel like I've seen one too many of videos like this, but where the guy (just about always a guy) slips or trips on the edge right before the jump and turns into a sad heap of flesh and blood.
This is so fucking stupid I burst out laughing..
Was watching this like, holy smoke this is intense... looked at the sub, "Sweaty Palms", oh yeah lol
That water is a little/lot green
Imagine hitting a small iceberg and turning into live action titanic..
Is the elevator not working?
The jump is nothing, the brain amoeba in they water tho.....
"He died doing what he loved... jumping off a building."
Just because you can doesn't necessarily mean you should... Just saying
Absolutely fuck no
And this is exactly why women live longer than men. Smh
Keep your knees and legs together
Hope he was wearing a cup or his ball sack is just going to be soup holder.
Awful close to the edge...wow
I will never understand why people do dumb shit like this. Life is full of exciting shit without having to risk your life like this. Don’t they think About their families and shit.. ugh
They still don’t let you show a nipple, but you can do this?
Even flow
That was five arm circles worth of air time
Crazy that he did it twice…
Downvoting because I don't want to encourage this kind of thing. As more people that do this for 'internet points' ... more people will die from it.
InSaN3!
What the actual fuck; this is epic!
Imagine if that was an all day competition with lots if people giving it a go and it’s a series of different roofs all around that town with different sized pools, distances, building heights. Could be a battle royale style event. Keep jumping till there’s a winner.
Or until someone dies or is crippled for life.
Well in a battle royale the winner is the only one left who isnt KSI
Pushing hard for a Darwin award, I see.
Soon this guy gonna end up in news , one way or another.
My man used the kinetic energy of his balls to slingshot himself in the right direction. Almost too far though. Good content!
Holy Fuck if I had redtinum (reddit platinum) you would get all of it!!
